pull down to refresh
Why, I esteem the injury far less,
To take the lives of miserable men
Than be the causers of their misery.
--Christopher Marlowe, The Jew of Malta
Tell me where is fancy bred,
Or in the heart, or in the head?
William Shakespeare, The Merchant of Venice.
To die, sweet Spenser, therefore live we all;
Spenser, all live to die, and rise to fall.
---Christopher Marlowe, Edward II
Love's stories written in love's richest books.
To fan the moonbeams from his sleeping eyes.
William Shakespeare, A Midsummer Night's Dream
Goodness is beauty in its best mistake
Christopher Marlowe
O, let me kiss that hand!
KING LEAR: Let me wipe it first; it smells of mortality.
William Shakespeare, King Lear
A greater subject fitteth Faustus' wit: Bid Economy10 farewell, and11 Galen come, Seeing, Ubi desinit philosophus, ibi incipit medicus: Be a physician, Faustus; heap up gold, And be eterniz'd for some wondrous cure: Summum bonum medicinae sanitas, The end of physic is our body's health.
Christopher Marlowe, The Tragical History of Doctor Faustus
Go wisely and slowly. Those who rush stumble and fall.
---William Shakespeare, Romeo and Juliet
